I have just tried the red button on my v+ box and it works on bbc but it still does not work on sky sports. I have checked red button services on my TiVo boxes and it works just fine. Could it be a compatability issue with a Samsung v+ box on sky sports. It is a right royal pain having to change rooms to watch red button services on sky sports.

Something as simple as a re-boot can fix this. The BBC Red Button stream is not a good test, as the additional stream is carried on an EPG channel, & selecting it via the RB menu just sends the box to channel 991. With Sky Sports the additional streams are hidden & the box software has to "find" them separately.
